I'm running 19 HP EVO, 8.5 front, 9.5 rear. Daily driver. They're great looking wheels I just wish they were 18's. The 19's just lift the car to much. I had some front fender grabbing with the Tein S springs so I bought M2 coilovers with Gab R just to raise the car. I just replaced the fronts with 235/35 because I've been rubbing on the fender liner.

Some members think that 19"s are too big and lift the car too much. I'm running Volk GTC 19"s with Tein Ra coilovers and it looks perfect. My fronts are 19x8.5 and rear 19x9.5. My volks weigh less then my previous 18" and the ride comfort isn't bad at all considering my 30 and 35 profile tires.
